TV on laptop?

What would I need to enable viewing of the tv channels on a laptop as there is no aerial connection in the room?

You could buy a USB Freeview adaptor - they look like a memory stick - and use that. They come with a small indoor aerial. These generally aren't very good, but it depends upon where you are in relation to your TV transmitter and how you position the aerial. There's a map of transmitters here. Zoom in on your area and double-click the nearest transmitter to see the area it covers. If the room has a window facing a transmitter, and you have few obstructions between you, then it might work.

Thanks for that, is this legit? ie. no bills/TV licence issues etc?

yes it is legit to use, but you must have a TV licence to watch live TV and that is live TV

Depends what you want to watch

Providing what you want to watch the best option is one of the mobile devices as I used to sell them, but steer clear of the sub £40 ones they were terrible from memory. Think they were branded Sumvision. We used to send 90% of them back to the suppliers.
